Description Suggest change

Climb up sandy rock past some large, right-facing flakes and them some conglomerate to get to the main event -- the overhanging hand crack through the roof. Jam your way to glory!

Once you're through the business, you can continue straight up to the top and build a gear anchor in some horizontals. To get down, either rap from one of the other routes' anchors or do the walkoff down the far end of the formation.

Location Suggest change

In the corridor behind the first part of the Sun Wall. From the popular sport climb Misty, walk around climber's right and into the corridor. As you scramble up the corridor, there will be an obvious crack system on the left that goes through a roof about 40 feet up.

Protection Suggest change

Doubles of hand sizes. A #4 Camalot is nice to have for the crack below the roof, but isn't required.

No anchors at the top. Build a gear anchor and walk off.
